Rohit Sharma ODI Stats and Performance against Sri Lanka

The Indian skipper is batting with aggressive intent in the powerplay and has been successfully scoring runs. On this surface, he will bat at the best possible time as the shot-making will get difficult against the older ball.

Virat Kohli ODI Stats and Performance against Sri Lanka

During his career, Virat Kohli has amassed staggering numbers against Sri Lanka and he almost always scores runs against them. However, the Run Machine struggles a bit on the slower tracks and the spinners. Hence, it will be better if you pick Virat Kohli as the captain of your GL teams instead of the SL teams.

Axar Patel ODI Stats and Performance against Sri Lanka

The left-arm all-rounder could be the wild-card captaincy choice as he is likely to contribute with both bat and ball. Axar Patel will be a lethal bowler on such a surface, while he is also a pretty compact batter to make a handy contribution with the bat.

Dunith Wellalage ODI Stats and Performance against India

In his short career, the young all-rounder has made India his favourite opposition as he has performed against them with both bat and ball. While he is still not very experienced, he could be a solid captaincy option on this surface given India’s struggles against the left-arm spinners in the recent past.

Pathum Nissanka ODI Stats and Performance against India

The right-handed batter has been in fine form since the T20 series against India. However, it is a difficult wicket to bat on and hence, it will be a better option to try him as a captain in the GL team.
